DETERMINING A FINAL INTERNAL GRADE

All schools offering the MYP must use the published subject-specific criteria and achievement level descriptors to determine final internal grades.

To arrive at a criterion level total for each student, teachers will need to total the final levels of achievement in each of the criteria.

Schools should use the grade boundary table found below to determine final grades in each year of the MYP. The table provides a means of converting criterion levels total into a grade based on a scale of 1 – 7.
